Christina - a Name Used in Royal Circles, But Also Have Some Interesting Background and Use
Christina
Christina is a female name originating from Christian.
Saint Christina (3rd or 5th century AD), a saint and martyr pre-dating the Catholic and Orthodox congregational tradition
According to Catholic and Orthodox tradition, Saint Christina was a saint and martyr allegedly born in Persia during the 3rd century or 5th century. Her feast day is July 24. Very little is known about her life.
Historical information about Christian is scarce, but several folk legends and hagiographies have arisen about her. These accounts vary widely, but seem to agree on some details: Christina was the daughter of a wealthy pagan magistrate named Urban/Urbain who had his daughter tortured because of her faith, but not before God thwarted his efforts on several occasions. The nature of the torture varies with each telling, and can include iron hooks, grilling by fire, placement in a furnace, torture on the wheel, assault by snakes, assailment by arrows, drowning at sea, and other assorted methods. In all versions of the tale Christina eventually perishes, but not before God exhibits his wrath by lashing out at her tormentors. Christina's relics are said to be kept in Palermo, of which Christina is one of four patron saints.
Because evidence of Christina's life and martyrdom is scant, some scholars have concluded that her legend is the result of pious fiction being mistaken for history. The theme of her legend (a beautiful Christian maiden is tortured to death by pagan men, who in return suffer the wrath of God) is repeated in many pre-congregation hagiographies, particularly that of Saint Barbara.
Christina the Astonishing (1150 – 1224), also known as Christina Mirabilis, was a Christian holy-woman born in Brustem (near Sint-Truiden, Belgium) in 1150. She is sometimes considered a saint. Christina is as much remembered for her faith as for her numerous and violent fits of ecstasy. Her memorial day is July 24 (August 6 by the Old calendar).
Born a peasant, Christina was orphaned at 15. When she was 21 (22 according to some sources), she is said to have suffered a massive seizure. According to legend, her condition was so severe that witnesses assumed she had died. A funeral was held, but during the service, she awoke, and is said to have levitated before the crowd. A priest eventually ordered Christina to descend, and she did so, only to land on the altar and proclaim that she had witnessed heaven, hell, and purgatory. Purgatory would henceforth become a major theme in her life.
After the levitation incident, Christina continued to be tormented by strange behavior and unusual events. As chronicled by her contemporaries, she suffered massive seizures (leading some modern scholars to postulate she was stricken with epilepsy). She also began to claim she could "smell sin" on other parishioners. She is said to have climbed trees, hidden in ovens and scaled roofs (when she did not levitate outright) in dramatic attempts to escape the sensation.
Christina displayed other odd behavior as well. She is said to have handled fire with impunity, and to have strapped herself to a mill wheel to be dragged, apparently without injury, round and round through the water. She is also said to have swum unmotivated through freezing waters. When tied to a pillory to prevent her from causing self harm (or according to other sources, because witnesses assumed she was "full of devils"), she is said to have always escaped unharmed. Christina died in 1224 of natural causes, aged 74.
Famous persons using the name are as follows:
Christina (Swedish: Kristina) (8 December[1] 1626 – 19 April 1689), later known as Maria Christina Alexandra and sometimes Countess Dohna, was Queen regnant of Sweden from 1632 to 1654.

As the heiress presumptive, at the age of six, she succeeded her father to the throne of Sweden upon his death at the Battle of Lützen in the Thirty Years' War.
After having converted to Catholicism and abdicated her throne, she spent her latter years in France and Rome, where she was buried in St. Peter's Basilica.

There are also places named Christina, we will only mention some few here and leave it to the reader to find more places and comment on that if you like.
Fort Christina (later renamed Fort Altena) was the first Swedish settlement in North America and the principal settlement of the New Sweden colony. Built in 1638 and named after Queen Christina of Sweden, it was located approximately 1 mi (1.6 km) east of the present downtown Wilmington, Delaware, at the confluence of the Brandywine Creek and the Christina River, approximately 2 mi (3 km) upstream from the mouth of the Christina on the Delaware River. It was the first permanent European settlement in the Delaware Valley.
Christina Lake is located along the Crowsnest Highway in the south-central area of British Columbia known as Boundary Country, which separates the Okanagan region from the West Kootenays. It is located 23 kilometers east of Grand Forks, just 1 km north of the United States border. The lake is renowned as the "warmest tree-lined lake in Canada" and was voted "BC's favourite lake". The region experiences very hot, dry summers and the lake itself lies above a geothermal fault, these two factors result in summer water temperatures averaging in the 23°C range.
The Christina River is a tributary of the Delaware River, approximately 35 miles (56 km) long, in northern Delaware in the United States, also flowing through small areas of southeastern Pennsylvania and northeastern Maryland. Near its mouth the river flows past downtown Wilmington, Delaware, forming the city's harbor for traffic on the Delaware River. The Port of Wilmington, opened in 1923 at the river's mouth, handles international cargo and trade.
Ships called Christina, such as Christina O which is one of the world's longest private yachts at 325 feet 3 inches (99 metres). She was originally a Canadian River class frigate called HMCS Stormont and was launched in 1943. She served as a convoy escort during the Battle of the Atlantic and was present at the D-Day landings. After the end of the Second World War she was one of many surplus naval vessels and Greek shipowner Aristotle Onassis purchased her for just $34,000. He spent $4 million to convert her into a luxurious yacht and renamed her Christina after his daughter. Apart from Onassis's mistress Maria Callas and his wife Jackie Onassis other celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and Eva Peron have sailed on her. She was one of the most famous society venues of the mid 20th century: John F Kennedy first met Winston Churchill on board in 1957.
